.SH "NAME"
ceph_selinux \- Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the ceph processes
.SH "DESCRIPTION"

Security-Enhanced Linux secures the ceph processes via flexible mandatory access control.

The ceph processes execute with the ceph_t SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing the \fBps\fP command with the \fB\-Z\fP qualifier.

For example:

.B ps -eZ | grep ceph_t


.SH "ENTRYPOINTS"

The ceph_t SELinux type can be entered via the \fBceph_exec_t\fP file type.

The default entrypoint paths for the ceph_t domain are the following:

/usr/bin/radosgw, /usr/bin/ceph-mon, /usr/bin/ceph-mds, /usr/bin/ceph-osd
.SH PROCESS TYPES
SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the system
.PP
You can see the context of a process using the \fB\-Z\fP option to \fBps\bP
.PP
Policy governs the access confined processes have to files.
SELinux ceph policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their ceph processes in as secure a method as possible.
.PP
The following process types are defined for ceph:

.EX
.B ceph_t
.EE
.PP
Note:
.B semanage permissive -a ceph_t
can be used to make the process type ceph_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated.

.SH BOOLEANS
SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.  ceph policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run ceph with the tightest access possible.

.SH "MANAGED FILES"

.SH FILE CONTEXTS
SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file type.
.PP
You can see the context of a file using the \fB\-Z\fP option to \fBls\bP
.PP
Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
SELinux ceph policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their ceph processes in as secure a method as possible.
.PP

.PP
.B STANDARD FILE CONTEXT

SELinux defines the file context types for the ceph, if you wanted to
store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use restorecon to put the labels on disk.

.B semanage fcontext -a -t ceph_exec_t '/srv/ceph/content(/.*)?'
.br
.B restorecon -R -v /srv/myceph_content

Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files.

.I The following file types are defined for ceph:


.EX
.PP
.B ceph_exec_t
.EE

- Set files with the ceph_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the ceph_t domain.

.br
.TP 5
Paths:
/usr/bin/radosgw, /usr/bin/ceph-mon, /usr/bin/ceph-mds, /usr/bin/ceph-osd

.EX
.PP
.B ceph_initrc_exec_t
.EE

- Set files with the ceph_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the ceph_initrc_t domain.

.br
.TP 5
Paths:
/etc/rc\.d/init\.d/ceph, /etc/rc\.d/init\.d/radosgw

.EX
.PP
.B ceph_log_t
.EE

- Set files with the ceph_log_t type, if you want to treat the data as ceph log data, usually stored under the /var/log directory.

.br
.TP 5
Paths:
/var/log/ceph(/.*)?, /var/log/radosgw(/.*)?

.EX
.PP
.B ceph_var_lib_t
.EE

- Set files with the ceph_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the ceph files under the /var/lib directory.


.EX
.PP
.B ceph_var_run_t
.EE

- Set files with the ceph_var_run_t type, if you want to store the ceph files under the /run or /var/run directory.


.PP
Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.  If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
.B semanage fcontext
command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling database.  You will need to use
.B restorecon
to apply the labels.

.SH "COMMANDS"
.B semanage fcontext
can also be used to manipulate default file context mappings.
.PP
.B semanage permissive
can also be used to manipulate whether or not a process type is permissive.
.PP
.B semanage module
can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove policy modules.

.B semanage boolean
can also be used to manipulate the booleans

.PP
.B system-config-selinux
is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
